Welcome to Amputee Care Center: the benchmark for customised arm and leg prostheses

Custom prostheses in Belgium – Design and manufacture by specialists

At Amputee Care Center, we design and manufacture unique and modern custom arm and leg prostheses tailored to your life, goals and wishes. In our orthopaedic prosthesis workshop, we combine traditional craftsmanship with state-of-the-art, digital and AI-driven prosthesis technology.

• We manufacture prosthetic legs for everyday use or for top-level sports. Our prosthetists, orthopaedic technologists and engineers create modern lower leg prostheses and upper leg prostheses with optional electronic knees. Fully personalised to suit your walking style.
• For those who wear an upper or lower arm prosthesis, we make the new generation of arm prostheses, hand prostheses and finger prostheses. From traditional aesthetic to state-of-the-art with myoelectric and bionic control.
• For children and young users, we design and manufacture unique children's prostheses that move with the energy and growth rhythm of a child, but also incorporate ultra-modern technology with AI control to achieve maximum potential during growth.
• Athletes (amateurs and professionals) will find what they need in our wide range of sports prostheses. From running to mountain climbing, with functional design and performance in mind. Also for top-level sports!  
• For showering, swimming or beach holidays, we make water-resistant prostheses. These prostheses are lightweight and can be fitted with fun, personalised covers.
• And for those who want maximum freedom through an anchored solution, we guide the entire process from osseointegration to walking and exercising with a prosthesis without a socket.

Customised prostheses for children – For play, growth and the future

At the Amputee Care Center, we design customised prostheses for children that grow with your child and his or her world. Our solutions are lightweight, dynamic and ready to play. From 3D-printed starter hands for young children to cool Hero Arms for children aged 8 and up.

We also offer specific custom sports prostheses for cycling, swimming, football and more for sporty children. In addition to providing the right technology, we also offer warm, multidisciplinary support, including psychological support, coordination with parents, schools and coaches, and practical assistance with health insurance or insurers for full reimbursement.

This gives your child the freedom to move, maximise their potential and be a child to the fullest.

Amputee Care Center, a unique concept offering comprehensive care for amputees

Learning to live with a prosthesis and functioning optimally with it requires specialised and centralised care. This applies both to patients who have just undergone amputation and to those who have already completed the acute phase of rehabilitation.

Once back home, many prosthesis users unfortunately find that their follow-up care, both in terms of prosthesis technology and physical and mental support, could be improved.

To help these people, the Amputee Care Center offers comprehensive care for amputees of both the lower and upper limbs. The main objective is to provide a continuum of care for users of all ages and their environment.

The strength of our approach is based on a holistic, comprehensive approach, with a team of specialists and coaches at your service. We are convinced that this is how we can really make a difference.

UpLab – Digital biomechanical laboratory for arm and leg prostheses

At UpLab by Spronken, we bring technology, expertise and training together under one roof. This is more than a traditional biomechanical laboratory or a simple gait analysis: the Amputee Care Center offers a fully digital process for measuring, analysing and improving your movement and prosthesis use.

We perform accurate muscle activity measurements for arm prostheses (EMG) and use advanced gait analysis in our gait school to optimise your step, balance and posture. We combine orthopaedic technology, medical and paramedical expertise into a single integrated programme, fully tailored to your body, goals and type of prosthesis.

This allows us to create customised prostheses that not only fit, but also perform to the fullest.

Free annual check-ups and maintenance, even for prostheses made by third parties

At the Amputee Care Center, you receive continuous guidance and free annual check-ups and maintenance, regardless of where your prosthesis was made. We check the fit, comfort, wear and tear, and functionality, and carry out minor adjustments or repairs immediately. This service is intended to prevent complications and optimise your mobility. Even if your prosthesis comes from another prosthetist, supplier or prosthesis maker, you are welcome for an independent and professional evaluation. Completely free of charge.
